GSIS - Woodwork
The Discovery Week Woodwork course is designed to introduce students to some basic concepts in woodworking and to give them familiarity with several hand tools and power tools. The skills they acquire can be very useful throughout their lives, especially if they are considering futures in the science, engineering, or design fields. We focus particularly on safety and these procedures also have lifetime relevance.
Each participant is given a plain plank of wood and transforms this into an attractive and useful bookshelf. Although we use a standardised construction method, design features are limited only by a student’s imagination and the nature of the material. Size and shape can be customised to fit a specific location in the student’s home and many of our graduates have told me that they are still using the bookshelf long after finishing their university years.
